Notes

* Editor’s Note: ‘Re-Readings’ is a regular feature in Philosophical Papers. Authors are invited to write on a past article, book, or book chapter that they deem, for whatever reason, to deserve renewed attention. Authors are encouraged, where appropriate, to discuss the work’s reception by and influence upon the philosophical community.

1 Louch also notes that it is our customary mode of explanation although he is careful to make clear that it is not appropriate because it is customary.

2 See Orman 2017 for an extensive critical discussion of Gellner’s linguistic thought.
